Rod, thanks tons! That did the trick. I went back to the manual and armed with your explanation it now makessense.

: Spring Boy is a monophonic sound . Check under pitch parameters. Sound layers 1 and 2 are on in the patch, and keyboard mode under the pitch parameters is set to mono for both. If you edit the patch and change this to Poly for both layers you should be able to play legatto. When set to mono the sound only retriggers when no notes are pressed (i.e. playing staccato) This should solve your problem. If you have any other problems let me know.

The very first "C" plays : : and *all* other notes remain silent. The interesting thing is that when I play the notes stecatto: : they all sound.

: : Can someone with a QS6 (not a QS6.1) give this a try and let me know if they experience the same: : drop-off of sound when playing legato?
